  1. Rice isn't a player who can operate at the base, as the 'pivot', or whatever you want to call the role. Wasn't great there vs. Wales and he's not playing well there now. It's one of the big reasons why England's buildup has been so bad. Central defenders having to ignore him. Unfortunately I don't think England have an alternative
  2. You'll get even fewer of them vs. France when Gareth reverts to his back seven.
  3. They need to change it so that it's one smooth run up. None of this stopping completely rubbish that can be abused. If you're going to nail keepers to the line - and that's a decent change imo - then don't allow takers to fake them to an extent where they're coming off the line
  4. He's in the kind of form where other players are going to have genuine fear facing him.
  5. Messi vs. Mbappé World Cup final would be ace. 4 goals, 2 assists for Mbappé.
  6. That's a horrible decision. Yellow card as well. Some of the refereeing has been woeful
  7. I think they'll beat Holland. They've got a team that works well together. Australia had nothing until they fluked a goal. Then Argentina felt a bit of pressure and it became harder. So long as they get Di María back and don't play a back three, they'll be alright
  8. Argentina were ok until they went to a back three. I'd love to hear Scaloni's explanation for that.
  9. Lautaro's World Cup of shame continues. Worth less than Lukaku at this stage.
  10. Not a fan of Argentina in a back three. Not as good. No idea why he's changed so early
  11. I know he's scored three and assisted one of Argentina's six goals at this tournament, but will Messi ever turn up for Argentina?
  12. Pretty sure he was starting XI and one of the Dutch posters on here said he offered to step out of the XI because he's not accustomed to playing in a three on the right
  13. Yeh she is awful. Not the worst - not even the worst on this programme given Micah Richards is sitting right next to her - but she'd be close to the bottom of any list
